National e-library for standardized chemotherapy regimens

The aim was to develop a method, an e-library, with standardized nomenclature and content in chemotherapy regimens. In developing the method, an iterative improvement process was applied, following a PDSA Cycle (Plan, Do, Study, Act). The entire process of developing the e-library was documented, through e.g. meeting notes and e-mail archives. The development process used participatory design, inv

Begrepp som skadar: Exempel från inre periferier i Polen, Nordmakedonien och Sverige

This chapter approaches the process of spatial peripheralization from the perspective of concept-induced harm. Harm is both a moral and a legal term construed along any form of physical or mental damage, be it intended or unintended. More broadly, however, harm denotes any form of setback to interest, and while harm can arise as the result of an onset of emotion, more often than not harm is concep

Frequently repeated measurements-our experience of collecting data with SMS

Background: As technology is advancing, so are the possibilities for new data collection methods in research, potentially improving data quality and validity of the results. In Sweden, a system using frequent repeated data collection using text messages, SMS Track, has been used in clinical research for more than a decade. In this paper, compliance with repeated text message questions was examined

Water and climate change: a sign of war or a chance for cooperation? A comparative study between Central Asia and South America

Different than the traditional body of work of this field that claims water scarcity leads to conflict, or to another line of research that claims water scarcity actually leads to cooperation; this article proposes a different causal mechanism that links the importance of the pattern of relations existing between countries prior to climate change and resource scarcity, to try to explain why water

Effects of storage conditions on degradation of chlorophyll and emulsifying capacity of thylakoid powders produced by different drying methods

Thylakoid membranes isolated from spinach have previously been shown to inhibit lipase/co-lipase and prolong satiety in vivo. There is a need to develop thylakoid products that not only have the desired characteristics and functionality after processing, but also are stable and provide equivalent effect on appetite over the promised shelf life. The aim of the present study was therefore to evaluat

Faste- och påsktiden i Svenska kyrkan 2017 : Redovisning av Luka 29

På 1940-talet började Kyrkohistoriska arkivet vid Lunds Universitet arbeta med att klarlägga förändringar i den samtida kyrkliga seden. Insamlingen av sådana uppgifter fann sin form på 1960-talet, då arkivet började sända ut rikstäckande frågelistor om den aktuella kyrkliga seden. Genom dessa LUKA-listor har den kyrkliga seden inventerats för hela landet med jämna mellanrum från och med 1962. År 2

Genome-wide association meta-analysis of single-nucleotide polymorphisms and symptomatic venous thromboembolism during therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoma in caucasian children

Symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) occurs in five percent of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), but whether a genetic predisposition exists across different ALL treatment regimens has not been well studied. Methods: We undertook a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis for VTE in consecutively treated children in the Nordic/Baltic acute lymphoblastic leukemi

Twelve months of exercise training did not halt abdominal aortic calcification in patients with CKD - a sub-study of RENEXC-a randomized controlled trial

BACKGROUND: Arteriosclerosis is prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our aims were to investigate (1) the effects of 12 months of either balance- or strength- both in combination with endurance training on abdominal aortic calcification (AAC); on some lipids and calcific- and inflammatory markers; and (2) the relationships between the change in AAC score and these markers in no

Entrepreneurial Bureaucrats: A Social Network Analysis of Lomma and Staffanstorp Municipalities, Sweden

Policy (or political) entrepreneurship (PE) is an actor-based framework to examine and understand policy change. Rooted in Kingdon’s (1984/2003) Multiple Streams approach (MSA), the policy entrepreneur is defined as “a special kind of actor, embedded in the sociopolitical fabric, who is alert to opportunities and acts upon them; he or she amasses coalitions for the purpose of effecting change in a
